We Are The Champions!!! Team Pic Third Rail Cafe & Pub Final Score 16-5 August 6, 2014 Hey fellow bloggers!! I am so many things....and now I am a softball champion in the women's B-league division. How I have time to do all the things I do between full-time work, my kids and their sports, and sewing...and I did play softball every Wednesday night.  The team we played (Chicago Sam's) beat us last year in the championship and this year we were going for the juggler.  We have a love hate relationship with this team and revenge was over due!! From left to right: My cousin Megan, me and my cousin Ashley Its funny how they are younger than me 3-4 yrs and I am the smallest :( LOL Isn't she beautiful!!! She was well deserved!! Lots of blood (literally from sliding into bases), sweat (hot days and nights) and tears (from the days we lost and the days we won).  I am so proud of my team, my softball family!!

Hello fellow Bloggers, I am eating my breakfast and on my way out the door for a 10 hour work day, but still feel like I have to say something because nothing just doesn't cut it.  I have a million sewing ideas, fabric, books, patterns, almost finished and finished products that I want to share....just have to find the time with work and "Oh Yeah" being MOM!!  I guess you don't realize (myself included) how much time and effort it takes.  I just have to remember for me, it is FUN and NOT WORK!! So on a fun note....I want to share a picture of my daughter.  This past Tuesday was her first softball game of the season.  She plays fall soccer, basketball, softball and also spring soccer at the same time.  She loves her sports and I am so proud of her.  She's pretty good too!! I'm not just saying that because she is mine. Please wish her luck today....she will see this post!! She's in the zone!!! Until Next Time  ✌ Stephanie ...
